For example, the value today of $1,552.90 to be received 10 years in the future is about $500 at an interest rate of 12%, but it is approximately $867 if the interest rate is 6%. Therefore, if you had $500 today and invested it at 12%, you would end up with $1,552.90 in 10 years. The present value depends on the interest rate because the interest rate determines the amount of interest you forgo by not having the money today. 5-11 a. 2005 | -6 ? 2006 | 2007 | 2008 | 2009 | 2010 | 12 (in millions) With a calculator, enter N = 5, PV = -6, PMT = 0, FV = 12, and then solve for I/YR = 14.87%. b. The calculation described in the quotation fails to consider the compounding effect of interest. It can be demonstrated to be incorrect as follows: $6,000,000(1.20)5 = $6,000,000(2.48832) = $14,929,920, which is greater than $12 million. Thus, the annual growth rate is less than 20%; in fact, it is about 15%, as shown in Part a. 5-12 These problems can all be solved using a financial calculator by entering the known values shown on the time lines and then pressing the I/YR button. a. 0 | +700 I/YR = ? 1 | -749 With a financial calculator, enter: N = 1, PV = 700, PMT = 0, and FV = -749.

The total payment remains constant over the life of the mortgage. c. Jan must report interest of $984.88 on Schedule B for the first year. Her interest income will decline in each successive year for the reason explained in Part b. d. Interest is calculated on the beginning balance for each period, as this is the amount the lender has loaned and the borrower has borrowed. As the loan is amortized (paid off), the beginning balance, hence the interest charge, declines and the repayment of principal increases. 5-23 a. 0 12% 1 | | -500 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | FV = ?

The PVs for Parts a and b decline as periods/year increases. This occurs because, with more frequent compounding, a smaller initial amount (PV) is required to get to $500 after 5 years. For Part c, even though there are 12 periods/year, compounding occurs over only 1 year, so the PV is larger. Chapter 6 6-2 Short-term interest rates are more volatile because (1) the Fed operates mainly in the short-term sector, hence Federal Reserve intervention has its major effect here, and (2) long-term interest rates reflect the average expected inflation rate over the next 20 to 30 years, and this average does not change as radically as year-to-year expectations. 6-3 Interest rates will fall as the recession takes hold because (1) business borrowings will decrease and (2) the Fed will increase the money supply to stimulate the economy. Thus, it would be better to borrow short-term now, and then to convert to long-term when rates have reached a cyclical low. Note, though, that this answer requires interest rate forecasting, which is extremely difficult to do with better than 50% accuracy. T-bill rate = r* + IP 5.5% = r* + 3.25% r* = 2.25%. 6-2 6-3 r* = 3%; I1 = 2%; I2 = 4%; I3 = 4%; MRP = 0; rT2 = ?; rT3 = ? r = r* + IP + DRP + LP + MRP. Since these are Treasury securities, DRP = LP = 0. rT2 = r* + IP2. IP2 = (2% + 4%)/2 = 3%. rT2 = 3% + 3% = 6%. rT3 = r* + IP3.

Because both bonds are 10-year bonds the inflation premium and maturity risk premium on both bonds are equal. The only difference between them is the liquidity and default risk premiums. rC10 = 8% = r* + IP10 + MRP10 + 0.5% + DRP. But we know from above that r* + IP10 + MRP10 = 6%; therefore, rC10 = 8% = 6% + 0.5% + DRP 1.5% = DRP. 6-5 r* = 3%; IP2 = 3%; rT2 = 6.2%; MRP2 = ? rT2 = r* + IP2 + MRP2 = 6.2% rT2 = 3% + 3% + MRP2 = 6.2% MRP2 = 0.2%. 6-6 r* = 5%; IP4 = 16%; MRP = DRP = LP = 0; rRF4 = ? rRF4= (1 + r*)(1 + IP4) – 1 = (1.05)(1.16) – 1 = 0.218 = 21.8%.

YTM = 3.31% 2 = 6.62%. With your financial calculator, enter the following to find YTC: N = 5 2 = 10; PV = -1100; PMT = 0.08/2 1,000 = 40; FV = 1050; I/YR = YTC = ? YTC = 3.24% 2 = 6.49%. Since the YTC is less than the YTM, investors would expect the bonds to be called and to earn the YTC. 7-5 a. 1. 5%: Bond L: Bond S: 2. 8%: Bond L: Bond S: 3. 12%: Bond L: Bond S: Input N = 15, I/YR = 5, PMT = 100, FV = 1000, PV = ?, PV = $1,518.98. Change N = 1, PV = ? PV = $1,047.62. From Bond S inputs, change N = 15 and I/YR = 8, PV = ?, PV = $1,171.19. Change N = 1, PV = ? PV = $1,018.52. From Bond S inputs, change N = 15 and I/YR = 12, PV = ?, PV = $863.78. Change N = 1, PV = ? PV = $982.14. 7-8 b. Think about a bond that matures in one month. Its present value is influenced primarily by the maturity value, which will be received in only one month. Even if interest rates double, the price of the bond will still be close to $1,000. A 1year bond’s value would fluctuate more than the one-month bond’s value because of the difference in the timing of receipts. However, its value would still be fairly close to $1,000 even if interest rates doubled. A long-term bond paying semiannual coupons, on the other hand, will be dominated by distant receipts, receipts that are multiplied by 1/(1 + rd/2)t, and if rd increases, these multipliers will decrease significantly. Another way to view this problem is from an opportunity point of view. A 1-month bond can be reinvested at the new rate very quickly, and hence the opportunity to invest at this new rate is not lost; however, the long-term bond locks in subnormal returns for a long period of time. The rate of return is approximately 15.03%, found with a calculator using the following inputs: N = 6; PV = -1000; PMT = 140; FV = 1090; I/YR = ? Solve for I/YR = 15.03%. Despite a 15% return on the bonds, investors are not likely to be happy that they were called. Because if the bonds have been called, this indicates that interest rates have fallen sufficiently that the YTC is less than the YTM. (Since they were originally sold at par, the YTM at issuance= 14%.) Rates are sufficiently low to justify the call. Now investors must reinvest their funds in a much lower interest rate environment. N 7-9 a. VB = (1INT r ) t 1 t d M (1 rd ) N M = $1,000. PMT = 0.09($1,000) = $90. 1. VB = $829: Input N = 4, PV = -829, PMT = 90, FV = 1000, YTM = I/YR = ? I/YR = 14.99%. 2. VB = $1,104: Change PV = -1104, YTM = I/YR = ? I/YR = 6.00%. b. Yes. At a price of $829, the yield to maturity, 15%, is greater than your required rate of return of 12%. If your required rate of return were 12%, you should be willing to buy the bond at any price below $908.88. 7-10 a. Solving for YTM: N = 9, PV = -901.40, PMT = 80, FV = 1000 I/YR = YTM = 9.6911%. b. The current yield is defined as the annual coupon payment divided by the current price. CY = $80/$901.40 = 8.875%. Expected capital gains yield can be found as the difference between YTM and the current yield. CGY = YTM – CY = 9.691% – 8.875% = 0.816%. Alternatively, you can solve for the capital gains yield by first finding the expected price next year. N = 8, I/YR = 9.6911, PMT = 80, FV = 1000 PV = -$908.76. VB = $908.76. Hence, the capital gains yield is the percentage price appreciation over the next year. CGY = (P1 – P0)/P0 = ($908.76 – $901.40)/$901.40 = 0.816%. c. As rates change they will cause the end-of-year price to change and thus the realized capital gains yield to change. As a result, the realized return to investors will differ from the YTM. 7-16 Before you can solve for the price, we must find the appropriate semiannual rate at which to evaluate this bond. EAR = (1 + INOM/2)2 – 1 0.0816 = (1 + INOM/2)2 – 1 INOM = 0.08. Semiannual interest rate = 0.08/2 = 0.04 = 4%. Solving for price: 7-18 N = 2 10 = 20, I/YR = 4, PMT = 0.09/2 1,000 = 45, FV = 1000 PV = -$1,067.95. VB = $1,067.95. a. According to Table 7.5, the yield to maturities for Goldman Sachs’ and GE’s bonds are 5.463% and 4.949%, respectively. So, Goldman Sachs would need to set a coupon of 5.46% to sell its bonds at par, while GE would need to set a coupon of 4.95%. b. Current investments in Goldman Sachs and GE would be expected to earn returns equal to their expected present yields. The return is safer for GE. Looking at the table, we see that the Goldman Sachs bonds are rated A, while the GE bonds have a rating of AA+. Chapter 8 8-4 Yes, if the portfolio’s beta is equal to zero. In practice, however, it may be impossible to find individual stocks that have a nonpositive beta. In this case it would also be impossible to have a stock portfolio with a zero beta. Even if such a portfolio could be constructed, investors would probably be better off just purchasing Treasury bills, or other zero beta investments. 8-7 The risk premium on a high-beta stock would increase more than that on a lowbeta stock. RPj = Risk Premium for Stock j = (rM – rRF)bj. If risk aversion increases, the slope of the SML will increase, and so will the market risk premium (rM – rRF). The product (rM – rRF)bj is the risk premium of the jth stock. If bj is low (say, 0.5), then the product will be small; RPj will increase by only half the increase in RPM. However, if bj is large (say, 2.0), then its risk premium will rise by twice the increase in RPM. 8-8 8-1 According to the Security Market Line (SML) equation, an increase in beta will increase a company’s expected return by an amount equal to the market risk premium times the change in beta. For example, assume that the risk-free rate is 6%, and the market risk premium is 5%. If the company’s beta doubles from 0.8 to 1.6 its expected return increases from 10% to 14%. Therefore, in general, a company’s expected return will not double when its beta doubles. r̂ = (0.1)(-50%) + (0.2)(-5%) + (0.4)(16%) + (0.2)(25%) + (0.1)(60%) = 11.40%. 2 = (-50% – 11.40%)2(0.1) + (-5% – 11.40%)2(0.2) + (16% – 11.40%)2(0.4) + (25% – 11.40%)2(0.2) + (60% – 11.40%)2(0.1) 2 = 712.44; = 26.69%.
